That's the idea. Her's what I did since I soldered the pin 1 wire from the Cruise M on top of pin 24. I cut pin 24 just beneath the right angle then pulled the pin down half way to the motherboard. That provided an easy post on the motherboard to solder the pin 2 wire from the Cruise M. Done. I suspect as long as the data signal comes out of the R2LC , goes directly to the Cruise M on pin 1 to J4, then comes out of the Cruise M on pin 2 and goes to the motherboard at the pin 24 connection this should work every time.
